What Is Civilization VII?
Sid Meier’s Civilization VII continues the legacy of the beloved strategy series, which began in 1991. Developed by Firaxis, this game allows you to lead a historical figure to global dominance. Build your city, create architectural wonders, and expand your empire through conquest or diplomacy.
The game offers flexibility in how you guide your civilization's progress, whether sticking to historical accuracy or creating a unique path. A significant new feature in Civ 7 is the dynamic civilization selection. Instead of playing as a single civilization throughout, you'll choose a new one for each of three Ages: Antiquity, Exploration, and Modern. The only constant is the leader you select.
